Hello, have a trip planned for the upcoming Tuesday. I was wondering what the optimum time to get to the park would be? We would like to get the most park time possible.

Any other advice would also be appreciated.
 
Thanks. That's good advice.

Would aiming for the opening at 10 be good or should we aim earlier? I have seen people say that the site said the park was open at 10 but when they got there at 9 it was open. Another said that 8:30 was a good time to get there.
 
Car parks will be open from around 8.30am, park gates open from 9am and rides open from 10am.

Arriving so you can be through the gates and waiting for your first ride pre-10am helps maximise the number of rides you can achieve. Dark Forest is a good place to start as Rita and 13 tend to be quieter first thing.
 
Contrary to some people’s advice, I would start in Dark Forest as @AT86 said. I always find that Thirteen and Rita are quiet in the mornings, and Rita in particular is on the lower capacity side.

I’ve done this before and managed a ride on Thirteen and 2 on Rita within under half an hour!
